TL;DR:

If you contribute a drawing to this site, you give us the right to use it to make our work and to do what we like with it, including sharing it with this world and others.

You agree to only make a single drawing, and to not try to game or break this website.

You also agree that you're over 13 years of age, your drawing is your own creation, and that your drawing is appropriate.

You understand that we save your drawing and IP address on our servers, and that we use cookies to identify you.

No matter what the website may say, we have final say on which drawings we use. There's no guarantee that any particular drawing will make it into the final project.

If you share your email address with us, we will only use it to email you information about this project, and we will not share it with anyone.

If anything goes wrong, it's not our responsibility to fix it. This includes the project getting canceled, your drawing being lost, your computer breaking, the Andy rover not landing safely on the Moon, or the end of the world.
